Run my god to the woods and the mountain, lai...
Take your lady to the streams and the fountains, lai...
For the city chokes and the factories smoke
And the pavement's cold and bare
So make your way to the woodland glade
And I will meet you there, singing lai...
The city parks have streams and pathways, lai...
But the paths are paved and dead are the waterways, lai...
And the people there all stop and stare
As I stand with robe and blade
And they never see as they look at me
The circle I have made, singing lai....
I will build a temple and set an altar, lai...
With smoke and fire, with sand and water, lai....
Though the room's not wide, and the street's outside
And the plastered walls are bare
It will be as glade and forest shade
And I will greet thee there, singing lai...
